Tomide007:

Well put. Infact Course 37 will go, or they'll posted to defence.

Wow, so all their experience, intelligence and competence will be retired for them to start collecting pension?

thebosstrevor1:


Yes. It is military doctrine

Wow. Waste, because in Nigeria's context now. They become idle minds collecting pension. And we know what idle minds with money, connection and power do.

ElexObi1:
He is from sokoto. Get your facts straight

born in sokoto but from zamfara. That's what his profile says

How do they become an idle mind.

A general is a general forever.

amuwo1980:

That’s is eh, many of my friends who became brigade generals and co some years back now just sit down and have tea in offices all day pass the time like grazing horses in the pastures

Your mates are Brigadier Generals... you are 41 years old *1980* ..

Yet you sit online as a keyboard warrior, abusing Yorubas that would ALWAYS be superior to you.

So pitiful ... so pathetic

Tinubuadvocate:
That's good congrats to the new army general in town. Your tenure shall bring peace and stability yielding more prosperous to our nation.

It will never be well with one-NIGERIA insha'Allah.
I can't tolerate one-NIGERIA with Hausa-fulani people ever again.

As if Buhari would care even if anything happens to him in service. Attahiru in astral 'll be like oh no! Dont accept that position else u'll be the next victim.

The clown we have in Aso Rock will never hide his nepotism and lopsided appointments... in democracy he still think Southern Army chief of staff will truncate his tenure as they chase him down in hole in 80s before thief Tinubu rebranded the old hag

Attahiru's death go affect more people now.

I am certain Ben Ahanotu knew he was about to retire, after he heard Attahiru was dead.

thebosstrevor1:


No.

He is a LT General and of Course 34.

yes now.as long as zi course 35 .36 dey go course 34 go just run b/4 they thrower

observanc1:
thebosstrevor1, what do u say about this?

One is navy and the other is airforce.

The navy is different from the airforce and the military doctrine of seniority still applies there.

OsuAmaka:

About 30 Generals would be dropping out in 5 months. That's HUGE number of loss to the nation. Right thinking individuals know how massive the implication.
Overall, the President has made a very poor decision & has cost the nation a great loss of resources.

-Osu amaka

As in.... just imagine the "wealth" of experience these guys have.

It's not something that can be taught in even in 10 years.

Better to just give them an option... resign or go to the insecure areas.

E.g. General x.X.x is put in charge of Kaduna's security. ... General Y, Yobe...etc

helinues:
That won't be bad.. We have so many saboteurs in the top army and air force rank

Just take a look at this.

Soukiss:
yes now.as long as zi course 35 .36 dey go course 34 go just run b/4 they thrower

No, he is the head of the military and general from course 34.

The rest are his junior.

This is a serious brain drain when there are lots of security challenges. Nepotism does not end well. We will see the effects in the near future.

30 general, where did you get your info from?

How many students in course 36 were able to reach Major General rank.

Think about that before writing misinformation down

I wish he retire 200 generals like obasanjo.

thebosstrevor1:


Military rank is by senority according to course. The junior salutes the senior. As you get to the pinnacle of your career, the size of top officers starts to shrink.

Every potential commissioned officer are admitted to the Military university ( NDA) by course. Course is like academic year.

For instance, a person who is in course 7 is a junior student when compared to someone who is in course 6.

Remember that a junior salutes a senior( course 7 salutes a course 6)

If the president overlooks course 6 and choose his army head from course 7, every body in course 6 will have to retire to allow the junior rule so as to allow him carry out his functions without fear and intimidation from his seniors.

Interesting

Someone should please educate me on the difference between 'operation Hadan Kai' and 'operation Lafiya Dole'

bjtinz:
To be fair, I'm not sure any president has ever appointed the most senior army officer as COAS.

Irabor was the most senior

Good to be a director but not good enough to be a managing director, only in Nigeria.

Of what use are the Generals?

madness. how can the death of one soldier affect the rest

Paciolo3278:
Be

Take time to work on this your "Flash TV" ... this your advert is far bigger than the service you are giving...

I presume this choice is targeted to oust Major General Ben Ahanotu one of the most qualified generals from the South for the position of COAS.

His Emergency Retirement will now be the excuse to carryout the act.

No one is created daft.

Nepotism is very expensive, wasting 10 Army generals because of " na my brother " in the face of this current insecurity.

BetExpert:
God punish Buhari. He chose another quota system fulani terrorists general over more well seasoned well trained highly intelligent merit based higher ranking Generals that are Igbos, Yorubas and other tribes. Now they want to retire quality Generals in place of the Nepa Certificate own. And then you wonder why ISWAP keep killing soldiers like mosquitoes on the battlefield. They are being led by corrupt quota system dunce fulani Generals with low IQ

The last time i check almost all the generals including the newly appointed COAS are NDA graduate, which means they all received the same training. All i see here is just dumb sentimental outburst and utterly ridiculous statement from an illiterate.

Your usual nonsensical opinions, at a time we need our best and experienced senior officers to tackle the menace of insecurities, so a move to retire 10 Generals is okay with a daft human like you. Well done with stupidity!
